looking forward to big moguls with this suspension,installation did not take very long,was very basic and easy to follow,i e-mailed labradorboy to just verify my measurements,after i riveted the templates to the tunnel,i put the rail extensions on ,then slid it in,i have to say this is the EASIEST suspension to line up in the tunnel,no fighting ,tugging,cursing :D ,ive put in c-7's,sc-10's and m-10,extra 10's and it sure is nice to have something so easy to put in place,and its hard to imagine how loose i can run the track,went for a short ride and looks like im gonna love it :D i will post some pics within the next 2 days

Very interested to hear how this performs. I love my M10, but your not going to win any races with it. I like something smooth in the bumps. Be sure to post when you get a good ride in on some bumpy trails.

Let us know how you like it. I like my ARM suspension and the new Expert X should be a lot better than that!

bladeguy...i had an m-10 the last 2 years,the ride was very very smooth ,but the 2 points i did not like about the m-10 were,lack of transfer,and had to run track very tight(bad for top end),this is where the expert should shine,after i get some miles i will give and honest opinion between the 2 suspensions

How do you like that isovibe riser, and where did you get it? Does it kill some of the vibes?

PANTERAONE,
Could you shoot me a copy of the e-mail with the measurements.. I have a tracking number on my Expert, so hopefully I can put it in next week. Might be nice to have a second opinion on the measurements. Thanks.
Also, do the tunnel pieces look like they will work with the SkiDoo tunnel reinforcements?

barely..i am at work right now,but when i get home in the am i will send you an email with the measurements :D and yes i left my rear tunnel reinforcements in place,the instructions say to remove them but looks ok and doesnt touch the suspension at any point in the movement,also your 121 has the same mount location as my 136
